Abstract

The environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) is a new tool which enables imaging of specimens in their natural state. The potential of this tool for studies of fresh diatom material, especially delicate structures like extracellular exudates, is illustrated by preliminary results obtained on Mastogloia fimbriata (Brightwell) Cleve and Mastogloia cocconeiformis Gran.
